Last week, as part of mental health well-being week, our student Ambassadors led a well-being session. They wanted to encourage their friends to spend time outdoors and exercise which is an amazing tool to support well-being. They organised a lovely event and I am so proud of them!
Thank you boys!

Crew Haycock smashed this weekās crew challenge. They were incredibly competitive at first but began to give each other encouragement and support as the challenge progressed. They used a range of skills including counting in multiples of ten to predict when they would be āoutā as well as throwing and catching skills.
The bagels were cooked to perfection too: thank you chefs!

3GS have all worked really hard to produce some fantastic setting descriptions of their own chocolate factories, I was very impressed with the effort and imagination of everyone in the class; you should all be really proud!
Here are a few examples of their beautiful work:
4H have been practising how to find words in a dictionary. It has certainly been interesting and the children have really had to grapple with the process of how to do this. As we made great strides of improvement yesterday, I began racing the children to see who could find the stated word the quickest. Methmi and Poppy were not happy that they were only a couple of seconds slower than I was! Maybe next week they will beat meā¦

Using the dictionaries and thesauruses that Mrs Graves has recently bought for school, we have been able to find synonyms and antonyms without having to ask for help! We feel so proud of ourselves and will get quicker at finding the words the more that we practise.
Thank you Mrs Graves, we love these!

In crew on Tuesdays, we take a reading focus. I canāt think of anything better than finding a good book and getting completely lost in the story which could take you to anywhere in your imagination. This week, we looked at a childrenās magazine with a variety of different stories in it. We scanned through the magazine to find something that caught our eye and then explained to each other what our attention was grabbed by and why.

In maths, we have been thinking really carefully about how we approach different styles of mathematical questions. Explaining our thinking to each other has helped us to realise with more accuracy where we have been successful and where we need to make improvements.
Well done everyone and an extra shout out to Alex who has shown so much enthusiasm in Maths since returning to school after the Easter break. I am so proud of you all.
